Topic: "Evolutions" assortment... (Read 48111 times)

Thanks for the info Jeff. That sounds good to me. Like we've been saying, if they continue this type of quality (of these first sets), it could be a tremendous line. If there was indeed a second wave of Padme, Obi-Wan and 3PO, that would be a great place to start. Padme's possibilities are nearly unlimited, I'd really like to see some Obi-Wans (AOTC and ROTS) in the style of those Anakins we see in the first series, and 3PO could be a good choice as well. I wasn't ever overly happy with any of the Saga offerings, with the Deluxe one probably being the best of the bunch, but nothing spectacular. Personally, I wouldn't see any problems with these selling...but maybe that's just me. I know I'll be buying all three, and maybe a couple of the Clonetrooper/Sandtrooper ones.

With all things clone, my gripe here is the # of these that will be available... I'm wanting multiple sets of the Clone Evolution set, which is absolutely fantastic. I got to get a good look at the loose ones at the Hasbro booth with Jeff, and I was just floored by the quality.

The whole series is fantastic looking though... VOTC quality all the way, detail and articulation galore, and now it's a matter of just making sure that MORE of the Clone sets are available than the others. I'm loving the other two current sets, but that Clone/Stormie set is the epitome of perfection for figures. Outstanding, and the pictures only TEASE with the quality these things are... In person they just really make you wanna knock the case over and take them and run away!

After seeing the pictures of these from C3, I've got to say that they look outstanding! Are there any more of these sets beyond these three in the works right now, or even rumored? With that kind of detail and articulation, I can only pray this line continues, since these seem to far surpass the regular carded figures, and are much more along the lines of the VOTC figures.

I'd love to see a bunch more of these, like Padme, C-3PO, Leia, Luke, Obi-Wan, etc. Did anything more come up on them in the Q&A, or is this all we're getting?

According to Hasbro, they only have these 3 sets planned so far, but at the C3 QnA they indicated that sales of this line will determine whether or not they go back and do more.

When we were talking to the Hasbro guys later, they said they had quite a few figures on the list already that they'd like to do if they get the chance to make more - Padme, Obi-Wan, 3PO. Almost made it seem like if there is a next wave, it'd likely be those three.

If they give us a C-3PO and he's got articulation in the knees then I'll be stoked. We also never got a good version of his AOTC incarnation. The EP1 version was plenty good for me, so again, enhanced articulation would be a must.

For Obi-Wan, I hope they go with all PT since we already have VOTC Old Ben. So it would be one from each movie.

For Padme they could do four sets each dedicated to her and STILL not be done.

-Leia... Easy enough with ANH, Hoth, and Endor...-Luke... Again, easy enough with ANH, Hoth, and Endor... Run with a theme here. One could replace either (or both) Luke/Han's early figure in with a Stormie version of them too.

-Imperial Troops... ANH Stormtrooper, Snowtrooper, Scouttrooper... I'd take that in a heartbeat!

The thing I like about the Evolutions sets is the price. To me, the $20 works out for 3 great figures in one set. This is ideal army builder potential, and I hope that main characters are done of course, but it's every army builder's dream that these are pushed for the troops too since it really makes sense. That Clone set is going to simply rock I do believe. I've got 3 on pre-order, and will definitely buy many more if I find them easily enough on my hunts.
